A new documentary on the late, great master piper, Liam O'Flynn from Kill in County Kildare, is scheduled to air on TG4 this Easter Sunday night.

This feature-length documentary tells the story of the master piper O'Flynn, from his work with Irish supergroup, Planxty, to his ground-breaking orchestral work in The Brendan Voyage.

O'Flynn, who passed away in 2018, was an acclaimed soloist and also collaborated with Planxty, Seamus Heaney and other leading musicians such as Kate Bush, Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris during his remarkable career.

That reminds me: Tim O'Brien was on the TV programme Wayfaring Stranger with Phil Cunningham the other night.  Paul Brady was on it earlier in the series too.  They played songs together.  No connection with Mark though. It's on the iPlayer:

I enjoyed the programme about Liam very much - he seemed to be a very gentle soul.  A lot of the programme is spoken in Gaelic, but somehow that didn't matter at all -  the 1 hour 30 minutes just flew by!   I must admit to having a tear in my eye towards the end, though.
